@farcreading I’d recommend anything written by Richard Allington, Donalynn Miller, Peter Johnston, Debbie Miller, & Pernille Ripp! I loved the book Mindset.

@farcreading Page 130 “When kids get ‘into’ their books in school, they are far more likely to read at home.” Make time for volumes of reading on school time...it may lead to volumes of reading at home!!! #farcreading#GeneseeISD#fromstrivingtothriving
@farcreading A3: I’m a big fan of book recommendations! I recommend books & have my students recommend books to one another daily through Seesaw, #booksnaps, book videos, Google Slides, post-its, book talks, & book trailers! #farcreading#fromstrivingtothriving#GeneseeISD
@farcreading Q4: It’s important to think about your classroom library as more than the books in your room. I loved the idea of visuals, videos, magazines, audiobooks, and other selections as “windows” into thinking and future reading! #farcreading#GeneseeISD#fromstrivingtothriving
@farcreading A2: “...wondering is contagious. They (Ss) begin to believe that their thinking really does matter and their questions are important.” Model, model, model asking questions about the world & to yourself! #farcreading#GeneseeISD#fromstrivingtothriving
@farcreading A1: I try to give all of my students 45-60 minutes of self-selected reading time daily. During this time, I’m meeting with guided reading groups & doing one-on-one conferences. #fromstrivingtothriving#farcreading#GeneseeISD
